Achievements
Thomas Siepmann studied mechanical engineering at Ruhr-Universität Bochum and received his PhD (Dr.-Ing.) from the Institute of Design Engineering as a research assistant to Friedrich Jarchow. In 1988, he was awarded the FAG Kugelfischer Prize[1] for his dissertation on “Friction Moments in Cylindrical Roller Bearings for Planetary Gears”[2]. His research describes the friction conditions of rolling bearings subjected to arbitrary accelerations based on the theory of transient elastohydrodynamic lubrication, thereby enabling their numerical analysis.
Industrial activity
After obtaining his PhD, he worked in software development, management consulting, and IT services. In 1987, he began working at the Krupp Research Institute in Essen within the Artificial Intelligence and Expert Systems research team. Between 1994 and 2003, he headed standard software development at a software company, managed the service management department of a large IT service provider, and was managing director of an IT consulting firm.
